The book discusses key Java development problem areas and best practices, and focuses on open source tools that can help increase productivity in each area of the development cycle, including:

  • Quality metrics tools that measure different aspects of code quality, including CheckStyle, PMD, FindBugs and Jupiter

  • Technical documentation tools that can help you generate good technical documentation without spending too much effort writing and maintaining it

  • Unit Testing tools including JUnit 4, TestNG, and the open source coverage tool Cobertura
